What a couple of days. I will post more complete details later but we saw things that John and others that live in Alaska rarely see. We have seen Orca's in Glacier Bay, calving of glaciers, and bubble feeding. We watched about 3 different times a group of 6-8 whales bubble feeding and whales breeching at the same time. Wonderful lunch of salmon and a chance to walk on the beach and collect some shells, sand, and water.
At Mendenhall Glacier I saw salmon (Christmas Tree Salmon) and got samples of water with silt and another sample with the gravel at waters edge with some water.
As I was typing I think I did get info about Tuesday adventures so I only need to get todays written. Will hopefully get that done a little later tonight and post tomorrow. Tomorrow is an early morning as we leave on a tender at 8:15 so we will have about an hour to explore and shop in Sitka before we head to the Raptor Center and take another wildlife watching cruise.
Time is ticking and you pay by the minute for internet. So I will close for now and post later tomorrow. I will be posting complete information about each day's adventures.
